Shipping table not adding additional items shipping costs

[Ajeh]

To do < 5 at $10 and >= 5 and <= 11 at $15.00 use:
5:10.00,11:15.00

Be sure to set to Weight and be sure to turn off the Tare settings in the Shipping/Packaging ...

NOTE: Anything over 11 with be Free with this definition you have as there isn't anything set to manage weight beyond 11 ...

I'm going to jump in here on this one too as I am trying to do something similar as the above method, but am running into the where it shows free shipping above my highest amount, which is 10lbs.

How does one cut it off at say 10lbs? I have a couple different flat rates up until then, but after that I want it to just disappear and they can choose from the other shipping options.

Are you saying you want the shipping module to show sometimes and then stop showing?

What shipping module(s) are installed and who is suppose to run when?

[bainne]

I have 4 different shipping methods. two show if they are within a certain zone, thats taken care of. One always shows, thats the courier.

However I want to offer a 4th for orders under 10lbs, a flat rate of $10.00. I would assume for this I would be using the table rate. However after the weight goes over 10lbs it shows as free. Any way to stop that? to make the table rate option disappear after the order weight is to high. The obvious answer would be to make shipping via the table method a million bucks for orders over 10lbs, but that seems to unproffesional.

You need to control the $this->enabled in a shipping module to set when it will show or not show ...

In the Table Rates table shipping module you will see:

    // disable only when entire cart is free shipping
    if (zen_get_shipping_enabled($this->code)) {
      $this->enabled = ((MODULE_SHIPPING_TABLE_STATUS == 'True') ? true : false);
    } 

Now, you need to add a check on the weight ...

Add this below that IF statement:

    if (IS_ADMIN_FLAG == true || $_SESSION['cart']->show_weight() <= 10) {
      $this->enabled = true;
    } else {
      $this->enabled = false;
    }

Why are you making multiple defines for the same price?

You can just set the range for each break point ...

Also, check your Maximum weight and Tare settings in the Shipping/Packaging as these are setup for weight in pounds, by default and 50 lbs would affect your settings as you are using the the weight as kg and these settings are too low ...
